Manchester City will again be without David Silva as they look to revive their
bid to reach the knockout stages of the Champions League against Ajax in
Amsterdam tomorrow night.

Edin Dzeko has described the game as “crucial” as the Barclays Premier League
champions look to make up ground in Europe’s premier club competition having
picked up only one point from their opening two group D games.

Silva sat out Saturday’s 2-1 victory away to West Bromwich Albion because of
the hamstring injury that the Spain playmaker suffered while on
international duty.
